| I visited the Wheel at Ticknall last night with 2 friends for dinner, I ordered the Cod fillet in batter & Chips. The meal when it came was fish but definitely not Cod and what ever it was was not filleted, I informed the waitress, who went to see the chief, she came back just to say the chef says it is Cod and some bones should be expected in fresh fish. That was it as far as she was concerned, no apology, no offer of a different meal, she just stayed out of the way. My colleague chose to pay and told him not to pay for my meal as it was not what was advertised and instead of nice white flake this fish what ever it was was off white and purple along the edges, his view was just to pay and not return, I am sorry but that was not my view I tried to talk to the staff but they were not interested. When I asked to see the chef, I was told he was the owner and if said it was cod then it was. This is the worst case of bad customer service and poor food I have ever come across. I would advise everybody to stay well away. [Report for Removal] | Mike Doyle Derby Derbyshire |

| My husband and I visited The Wheel at the kind invitation of friends and I was so appalled by the standard of the food that I have been compelled to write my first review of a restaurant ever. My main course was the venison pie which consisted of a soggy piecrust covering a few bits of tough meat I had requested mash potatoes and the vegtables, the mash was a sickly grey colour and reminded me of something I used to eat many years ago something called Smash because I was a newly wed and on a budget, it was all lumpy and cold, the veg was of course the kind which comes in a clear plastic bag and you put in the microwave yuk! I could not believe it (I had been warned but I like to give a place a chance)I requested some gravy to help me eat it, my desert was a thin sliver of pie on a plate covered with icing sugar, my husbands meal cajun chicken yes right...it was possibly one of the worst meals he has ever had a piece of chicken covered in crisps and tomato sauce,with a sort of relish of the side,(dont tell the people in the deep south)his desert was described as 'pancakes with fruit and cream' I was tempted but was glad I did not choose this...it consisted of two round pancakes (you know the kind I mean Mothers Pride pancakes two packets for £1) a bit of canned fruit and whipped cream. Our friends wanted a coffee so we obliged, even the coffee which was very strong and cold what an evening never again. Now if this was a two for one I could understand it (but honestly the two for ones can be very good)but come on at the prices they charge it is a rip off...Gordon Ramsey should pay a visit..my husband and I are seasoned foodies we love to entertain and dine out....we did not complain because we did not want to upset our friends. Well I feel better for that please do not edit this or remove my view as there is nothing offensive I believe that constructive critism can help improve a restaurants standards.If I dont see this review then I shall lose all faith in websites such as this, at this moment in time I will not be recommending this establishment to any of my friends.[Report for Removal] | kay brooks derby derbyshire |

| My Husband and myself had gone for a long walk around Chalk Abby,we decided to call into the Wheel for a well earned drink we sat in the lovely garden for a while then decided sit inside as it turned cooler inside was just as impressive as the outside,so impressed by the cosy atmosphere and the cheerful staff we decided to have a meal,The meal was one of the best we have had in a long time reasonably priced and well presented, we will definitely go back. We visited the Wheel Saturday 11Th of September 2010[Report for Removal] | Cathryn Egan Alvaston Derby |

| Three of us had dinner at the Wheel Inn, Ticknall shortly before Christmas 2008. We all had different meals from the menu and without doubt, it is one the best meals cooked to perfection, that I have ever had in any English restaurant. The surroundings are delightful and the staff helpful and polite and the prices are in line with the standards (they are also not too expensive). My friend who lives opposite takes all her friends from round the country there and everyone is very impressed.[Report for Removal] | Maurean Reid and Kent Goddard Derby Derbyshire |
